O God, Who didst endow holy John, 
Thy confessor and doctor, 
with a wonderful love of self-denial 
and a surpassing love of the cross; 
grant that by following ever in his footsteps, 
we may obtain everlasting glory. 
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, 
Who liveth and reigneth with Thee 
in the unity of the Holy Ghost, one God, 
world without end.

Amen.
